Publisher's Summary

In The Book of Tides, William Thomson took the listener on a mesmerising journey round the coast of Britain. Now he sets out with his surfboard and tidal compass to encounter the waters of the world, charting his most extraordinary sights and experiences.

These include the whirlpools of the Arctic circle, the world's biggest ever surfed wave off Portugal, the strongest whirlpool in Norway and, in Australia, the most dangerous rapids known to us. William's passionate journey is an audiobook for anyone who feels the pull of the tides and call of the sea.
